It's about a year now since I began to be interested in sustainable fashion and a sustainable lifestyle, or rather a year ago a seed was sown and a few months ago I took the full step and chose to have a more sustainable approach here on the blog as well. But what was it that sowed this seed then? I'll talk about it today! I highly recommend these documentaries to become more aware and, above all, to reflect on habits, I realized that much of what I did, and still do, are old habits that I have previously not taken into account but which I have and can change by small steps and switch to more sustainable consumption.

I know it may be hard to examine yourself, your habits and thoughts, but I'm completely convinced that it's better to be aware of how different situations looks than to stuff the head in the sand. I feel more aware today and have definitely not switched to an optimum lifestyle yet (does it even exist?) but I make conscious choices, not always the best and wisest, but there is another awareness present today with me. And that's what I think is most important.

These are available on, among other things, Netflix:

The True Cost - The first and perhaps most important documentary I've seen that shows the backdrop of the fashion industry and, above all, the low price. Have you wondered how a garment traveling from the other side of the globe can cost less than 10 euros? Here you get the answer.

Cowspiracy - An attentive documentary who asks why nobody talks about the consequences of our meat industry. Well, we're talking about the consequences after seeing this! However, I have read that the statistical numbers aren't quite correct but still incredibly worth seeing.

Food Choices - Focusing on finding a general "optimal" diet for humans, some talk about weight occurs. I have always been interested in the relationship between food and health (yep, though I'm fat) for many reasons, including giving my body and above all my skin if we are to be totally honest here the best conditions.

Minimalism - As the title reveals, this documentary deals with minimalism, very interesting and makes one reflect on the "want want want"-thoughts that always pushes me at least.

Have you seen any of them? Do you have more documentaries to suggest? Feel free to comment! ♥
